The Educational Broadcasting Corporation (WNET) is researching and testing an experimental, short-format television broadcast and Web project entitled "Science InSight." The goal of this experimental research is to determine if short-format television segments can successfully increase Americans' understanding of -- and interest in -- new research in science and technology and, if they can, which of several possible formats is likely to be most successful. During this research and development phase, WNET will test the viability of the project model and develop and refine the model for use in a selected group of media venues such as the forthcoming PBS weekly public affairs program,"Public Square." The specific activities to be undertaken in the research phase include:-assembling an expert board of up to six advisors with expertise in science, science journalism and media;-producing three, experimental, short-format, "program concept" video segments of varying lengths for use as science information pieces in other media programs;-conducting formal and informal testing and evaluation of these test formats for appeal, credibility, clarity and comprehensibility of style and content; and -identifying additional key potential distribution partners from television media, print, Web and science centers outlets.

教育广播公司（WNET）正在研究和测试一个实验性的，简短的电视广播和网络项目，名为“科学见解”。 这项实验研究的目的是确定简短的电视节目是否可以成功地增强美国人对科学和技术的新研究的理解，以及（如果可以的话），哪种可能的几种可能形式可能是最成功的。 在这个研究和开发阶段，WNET将测试项目模型的生存能力，并开发和完善该模型，以便在选定的媒体场所中使用，例如即将举行的PBS每周公共事务计划“公共广场”。 在研究阶段要开展的具体活动包括： - 组合一家专家董事会，拥有科学，科学新闻和媒体专业知识的专业知识； - 生产三个，实验性的，短形式的“程序概念”视频片段的视频片段，用于在其他媒体程序中用作科学信息的各种长度，以实现正式和非正式的测试和评估，以实现正式和非正式的测试和评估。并识别电视媒体，印刷，网络和科学中心媒体的其他关键潜在分销伙伴。
